We conducted a cross-sectional study using a questionnaire to explore the late effects in survivors of allogenic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) for juvenile myelomonocytic leukemia (JMML). The attending pediatric hematologists/oncologists completed the questionnaires. Of the 30 survivors, approximately 83% showed more than one late effect. The identified late effects included endocrine, dental, skin, ophthalmologic, musculoskeletal, pulmonary, neurocognitive, and cardiovascular dysfunction. The prevalence of short stature, pulmonary, cardiovascular, and nephrological complications was significantly elevated among survivors who were 12 years or more lapsed after HSCT. Therefore, a multidisciplinary follow-up system for survivors of JMML is crucial. |
